Additional quotes by Mark Akenside

Oft the hours
From morn to eve have stolen unmark'd away,
While mute attention hung upon his lips.

Heaven's all-subduing will,
With good the progeny of ill,
Attempreth every state below.

Adieu, for him,
The dull engagements of the bustling world!
Adieu the sick impertinence of praise!
And hope, and action! for with her alone,
By streams and shades, to steal these sighing hours,
Is all he asks, and all that fate can give!

The man forget not, though in rags he lies, And know the mortal through a crown's disguise. - Mark Akenside
